A nursery has seen its Ofsted rating improve following an inspection.
Montessori and Me Nursery, in High Road, Romford, had been deemed to require improvement in all categories in September 2022 before last month’s inspection.
But Ofsted, the education watchdog, declared the overall effectiveness at Montesorri and Me 'good' after a May 12 inspection this year.
In the report, Ofsted said: “Relationships between children and staff are warm and caring at this nursery.
“Children behave well, and staff use praise effectively to support them to understand how their behaviour can help others and why this is important.”

One of the most significant improvements identified by inspectors was staff performance.
Previously some nursery staff were deemed by Ofsted to not understand all of the nursery's policies and procedures, impacting the quality of education children received.
But in the May inspection, staff were praised for encouraging children and having a clear educational vision.
